Summary

What do you do when you are a god – but powerless and unable to prevent one of your favourite species from their insatiable, accelerating death wish? Do you try to shout louder and more insistently, or instead reinvent yourself as a troubadour of romantic ruin? Such are the dilemmas posed by Rishi Dastidar in his third poetry collection Neptune's Projects, a reshaping of mythology for the climate crisis era which gives bold consideration to the stark choices we face.
A post-apocalyptic jig and reel, these poems are compelling, deadpan yarns of the sea, full of both fury and fun. In Neptune's Projects the end of humanity is made wry, thrilling – and alive.
Available since: 04/27/2023.
Print length: 72 pages.

  • The Wolf - cover

    The Wolf

    The Wolf poem :: was inspired by William Blake's - 'The Tyger'. 
It has the same regular form & meter as The Tyger. 
With tempo and stanza (of the quatrain type), and is about one single animal in the natural world. 
Where it differs from William Blake's poem is that the Poem Tyger has more religious connotations, not surprising for the times in which it was written. 
Whereas 'The Wolf' written by myself, has more of Natures influences. 
It's also about the possible demise totally of the Wolf through man, and a warning of this. 
As we take care of The Wolf and other similiar 'top predator' animals, 
so we automatically take care of the natural habitat that they live in - something that is increasing in peoples consciousness today.

    Poet-critic Jim Johnstone has described Kevin Heslop's the correct fury of your why is a mountain as among “the most promising poetic projects to come out of Canada in recent years.” This debut collection communicates Heslop’s sense of balance as a visual artist, curator, and poet who weights the page with visual harmony. By turns experiment, lyric, and incantation, the book nods to its author’s training as an actor, combining a command of language, form, character, and polyphony to make something performatively unique.

    In My Grandfather's God, David Somerfleck invites readers into a poetic journey through the vast landscape of human experience—where love and loss, spirituality and skepticism, pain and transcendence intersect. 
Each poem is a revelation—sometimes tender, sometimes unflinching—exploring how belief, memory, and identity shape our understanding of self and the cosmos. Within these pages, the divine is questioned, confronted, and occasionally found in the quiet corners of everyday life. 
Themes range from the generational weight of faith and family to the scars left by abuse, the solace of love, the ache of loss, and the elusive beauty of truth. These poems move between the intimate and the infinite, where personal wounds echo against the backdrop of cosmic thought and hard-won wisdom. 
My Grandfather's God is at once deeply personal and universally resonant—a collection for anyone who has wrestled with the unseen, questioned what they were taught, or sought meaning amid both deception and revelation.
